Introduction
Some delicacies are seasonal—especially when the mango is involved. The mango is already a sweet fruit with a large fan following—now imagine if we added them to our desserts.
There is already a large variety of mango-based sherberts, ice creams and smoothies out there—but what about a trusty pudding? What about a vegan, trusty mango pudding? That’s where this recipe comes in: great flavour, great nutrition and amazing texture.
Usually, mango pudding is made using gelatin—which is animal-based. However, that’s all about to change. With the power of agar-agar in your hands, you can finally actualize a tasty mango-flavoured pudding that is vegan-friendly.
With a few ingredients and a short cooking time, this dessert option is sure to be an impressive addition to your recipe book—and we’re sure that it will knock your friends and family’s socks off!
Let’s take a closer look at how you can craft the perfect dessert that will be the ideal seasonal treat for your table.

Step-by-Step Instructions
How to Make Mango Pudding
Step 1: Blend the Mangoes
Start by peeling & chopping the ripe mangoes into small pieces. Drop the mango slices in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. You can also strain the puree through a fine mesh sieve, if required, to remove any fibrous bits for a silkier texture.
Step 2: Prepare the Agar-Agar
Gather a small saucepan. In it, combine 1 cup of water with the agar-agar. Heat the cool mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly. Bring the mixture to a gentle, full boil and then let it simmer for about 5 minutes or until the agar-agar is completely dissolved. Remove the saucepan gently from atop the heat source and allow it to cool slightly.
Step 3: Mix with Milk and Sugar
In a mixing bowl, combine the dissolved agar-agar mixture with 1 cup of milk (or coconut milk) and 2 tablespoons of sugar. Whisk this uneven mixture thoroughly until the sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture looks and feels smoothened. If you're planning on using honey or maple syrup, add them at this stage.
Step 4: Combine and Chill
Gently fold the mango puree into the milk mixture, being careful not to overmix. The goal is to combine the flavours without losing the airy texture. Once combined, pour the mixture into individual serving cups or a large mould. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until the pudding is set and firm to the touch.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Once the pudding is set, you can garnish it with fresh mango slices, a sprinkle of toasted coconut flakes, or a sizable dollop of whipped cream, for an added touch. Serve chilled and enjoy the delightful burst of tropical flavours with every spoonful!
Recipe is wrong – you need to combine agar along with water and boil until the agar dissolves completely. After that you need to add other ingredients and mix it in the heat only.
Tips and Variations
Easy Mango Pudding Recipe Variations
- Dairy-Free Option: For those avoiding dairy, substituting regular milk with coconut milk not only makes it vegan but also adds a deliciously rich flavour that pairs perfectly with mango.
- Vegan Option: Agar-agar is naturally plant-based, making this recipe vegan-friendly. Ensure that any sweeteners you use are also vegan to keep the dish completely animal-product-free.
- Flavour Enhancements: To elevate the flavour, consider adding a pinch of cardamom or a squeeze of lime juice to the mango puree. Both ingredients can enhance the tropical notes of the mango while providing a refreshing contrast.
- Garnishing Ideas: For a more visually appealing dessert, top your pudding with fresh mint leaves, slices of fresh mango, or even a drizzle of coconut cream. A sprinkle of chia seeds can even add texture and health benefits.
